change in criteria n weighting, doesnt mean the uni's performance has drop... previously it was qs-thes... now split d

monash is probably diluted by having too many students and offshore campuses XD

Haha i see. So Monash is still maintaining its standard. I'm gonna officially be a graduate this November. So that's good news for me. smile.gif

ALWAYS eat mcd or sth before going for ball dinner. At least if the food sucks/is cold then no need to worry.

Yeah exactly! You're definitely not gonna be full from the meal. I went last year and the food was pretty ok. But the portion was kinda small. So my friends and i went for supper at McD after that. xD

I'm a year one sem 2 student.. tried to ask people around me in the lecture for International Financial management and trade & foreign exchange.. most of them either major in accounting & finance or economics  sweat.gif

Yup so true. Most of my friends are in the accounting and finance majors as well. laugh.gif

Yalarrr , i am preparing myself to meet different people in different sem already..   rclxub.gif
did you experienced that while taking International Business units ?  hmm.gif
*
Yeah i did. Met some from management, marketing, finance, economics, and even from the Arts dept. biggrin.gif And yeah there will be a lot of people from different sems/years. I did mines in year 1 but there were a number of people from year 2 & 3 as well.

So what do you guys think of only taking a single major with a minor? Job prospects etc? icon_question.gif
*
Well i personally think it would be better to do two. If you do just one, then you have to fill it up with a lot of electives which is like basically all over the place.

I'm okay with taking up random electives, but what about job prospects after graduation? All I want is just my foot in the door, and that's it. sad.gif
Exactly. Did you graduate with a single major?  icon_question.gif
*
I'm not quite sure about that. I'm a double major and I just had the impression that it would be good to specialize in two things. Just a personal opinion. ^^

Cross finger for a gaming or mtg society.

Yup you can find it here. Not quite sure if all the clubs are listed there though. I could have sworn we had more than that. xD
